Neuroprotective effects of Lepidium meyenii (Maca)
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2010The neuroprotective activity of the plant Lepidium meyenii (Maca) was studied in two experimental models: in vitro and in vivo. Crayfish neurons were pretreated with vehicle or the pentane extract from Maca, subjected to H2O2, and their viability determined microscopically and chemically.
